Iv only got one eye n last week I bent down in a shop n misjudged how close I was to the shelf n cracked my forehead n knocked 💩 off the shelf in front of everyone in the store.It was embarrassing n I left feeling sorry for myself then I thought of Bisping winning the world title with one eye n I gave myself a mental slap,stopped the pity party n realised I don't have it so bad,Bisping fought the best in the frikkin world with one eye,just crazy.
That's awesome, unfortunately now adays that would be, difficult to say the least because doctors use a series of over 16 different charts, and use random ones for random patients.
My grandad passed a driving assessment as well with glaucoma, Could barely see anything out of 1 of his eyes. he simply ran through difficutiEs he might face being convincing, with an insttructor in the car aand prepared. He was sent to be tested, In his 80s, and there were 2 young lads that were there, no doubt for some stupid conviction and they were both braggging about how good they were as drivers, especially in difficult conditions. My granddad was shrewd and crafty, and my dad still laughs to this day, that he passed with one eye, and both those lads failed.
This is all the JRE was ever supposed to be. Just Joe listening to a wild story and then half-remembering a fact about cyborg eyes. Life as it should be.

Yeah I still remember giving him no chance I was thinking how dominant Luke looked beating Wiedman and thought no way Mike wins, glad I was wrong as a 🇬🇧 especially:)
Before he won the title, back when he fought Hendo, Bisbing was one of the most hated fighters in the UFC. Now he is one of the most liked commentators and MMA personalities. Certified legend.
100%. I, along with my buddies, all hated him back in the day. Flat out hated him. Now I respect him so much and truly enjoy his perspective on fighting. Love his podcast, and actually like his fight commentating too for the most part. It’s just amazing how much I used to hate him when he first came in the scene. Lol
@@guccimalcs False comparison, Bisping was just annoying. Jon Jones has actually cheated multiple times. Crashed into a pregnant lady and ran off. Spent ages pretending to be a christian lmao. Guy is legitimately a sociopath. There's no coming back for someone like him. Especially through just being good at commentary lol.
I was born with only one working eye... and to see Bisping explaining relatable struggles and still accomplishing things makes me feel so understood and encouraged. I am hoping for advancements in ocular robotics as well haha Oddly enough, since I have about 5%-10% of my vision in my "bad eye", my depth perception is pretty normal! Maybe I am just so used to making the proper adjustments since its all ive ever known.
Your brain adjusts and kind of compensates for the depth perception apparently, not 100% though, I wasn't born blind in one eye but now I am, so I could tell the difference, sucks, especially the surgeries, but it feels normal now, I can even play sports properly(even though I'm not supposed to lol) people don't notice until I mention it, weird.

I’m in the same boat as you, about 5-10% in my bad eye and my “good eye” isn’t exactly good either 😂, insane to think about Bisping being able to fight and win a title with one eye
Well from what I have seen so far those who had poor eyesight since thier childhood has better eyesight compared to those who recently started having poor eyesight although they requires same amount of lens. I need -4.5 to -5 power lens but I can play football so called soccer in USA without any lens or anything but my friends who needs around -3 to -4 power lens can't play football without lens or glasses, etc. So yeah your body made an adjustments. And these stories of our bodies making adjustments are completely true or can be demmed true to some point
My 4 month old child went through the same thing (genetics not roided Vitor) and this video and your story helped my wife a lot and I know your story will be a constant reminder to him growing up on not letting his conformer or condition be an issue.
Love him or hate him, Michael Bisping has been an absolute gift to the sport. He was a great fighter and has a PhD in shit talking, which made for many hilarious moments over the years.
Him carrying on, knowing he could go blind and get seriously hurt is a testament to how much of a warrior this guy is. He deserved to be a champ at that point. Many great things that’s happened in the UFC but this is probably the greatest story that’s ever happened in UFC history. I always wanted him to be champ as an Englishmen and so glad he achieved it against all odds too. Makes us even more proud of him that he did it after all he’s been through. Watching him win and KO Rockhold at 5am in the morning here in England was the best moment ever watching MMA. Everyone in the house was woken up too. They were pissed, it was tremendous. Love you Mike ✌🏻

Its a fucking joke that Bisping isnt bigger in the UK. The man is the first English Champ, and he did it one short notice with one fucking eye. absolute fucking legend.
I always loved Bisping. I remember when he was on the Ultimate Fighter and won a bout against Ross Pointon (I think it was Ross). Ross was taking the loss really hard and Bisping comforted him and encouraged him. He didn’t have to do that but he did anyway. I admired that about him.
I was 20yr old in NJ Newark airport at my gate waiting for my plane to Manchester England and he turns up, just him and his lady. A quick hello and congratulations on winning UF before getting on the plane. Never forget how humble and happy he was.
who's trying to do that lol You're off your head even saying that. It's weird. Somebody is being proud of somebody doing a great job, having merit in a sport, from their country. It's inspiring, nothing wrong with that at all. Only some of the extremer end of the Yanks says this sort of thing, because of how they're educated. In their mind The Yank is allowed , USA USA USA proud proud, but not the English man, Look when Mike Tyson on hotboxing, repeatedly mentions something positive about the English in terms of a warrior tradition, and the American guy he's says it to , never knows how to respond, + looks really fucking uncomfortable like he's learned something different from what he got taught in history at school lol Is it like a Yank brainwash? Cognitive dissonance, Yeah anyway we get it, fine, but no one ever slaps these fuckers in the face, by pointing out common sense to them, the basic concept, from George Washington. to General Patton, the two greatest martial heroes in US history ,their veins were full of fucking English blood, These are English cowards that they look up too in their US martial tradition. Like it or not, their genetics were not from the other 195 countries on the earth! Hard I'm sure for a humble Yank to get his head round I can imagine. If I was a Yank I'd probably struggle with it too ,I feel for you Gentlemen sometimes honestly not an easy circle to square.Well.. Bispings full of Polish right lol yet ironically he considers himself English through and through lol Life's funny like that isn't it sometimes @@Inaluogh
My goodness. The UFC should take care of this guy for life for real. Incredible. Much respect to Bisping for the way he has handled it and who he is as a person now.

Sadly this isn't always the case, there's fighters that have been left with major CTE dimentia and have been left to get on with it after no longer being able to fight. Fisher being just 1 example. It's pretty sad really and the UFC could do so much better by their fighters.
One of my favorite sportsperson for his attitude, jokes, fighting ability.. and he was a Champion too!! Hope he stays the same and remains an inspiration!!
@Billy Jackson he doesn’t provide the full picture. One podcast won’t provide the full picture especially when it’s not even a legit educational platform. Do your own research. Go to school, actually educate yourself from multiple media’s. Don’t take ALL your info from one podcast on Spotify. Joe admitted it himself that he wasn’t actively showing both sides to things like covid-19. I miss the old Rogan where I could use his podcast to distract from the struggles of life, hear him rant about ufc, chimpanzees and don’t. Now it’s basically like I’m watching the 5 o clock news with all his covid “experts”
I used to not like Michael Bisping years ago, but over time he became one of my most admired athletes in the UFC. His toughness and no excuses attitude won the Belt simultaneously redeeming his defeat against Rockhold and Achieving Championship🏆 belt with 1 eye 👁️. Amazing. That makes it even more remarkable!!! Bravo 👏. I'm sure the UK, his family and friends are very proud
Iv only got one eye n I can't begin to tell you the respect I have for Bisping winning the UFC belt one eyed.Its incredible,I still struggle with day to day things never mind winning a world championship belt.Mad respect.
I hated him....when he was on tuf...and coached tuf...then liked him when he ko like...then hated him when he beat hendo in his last fight....hendo being my fav fighter of all time....now like him again once I found out he only had 1 eye years ago
I look up to bisping so much, i currently have retinopathy and had to leave martial arts to the wayside, but knowing this man fought with one eye made me believe its possible to live your life and manage with it and still be fulfilled with your life. Legend of a man
I love Bisping commentary, he is always so genuine and has real good, engaging delivery. I love to hear his histories, not to mention the heart to go fight with some of the toughest men on the planet just with one eye. What a legend. Being champion is the just such a good payout for his persistence.
Let’s not forget that there were many fighters with a TRT exemption back when Bisping fought Belfort…and Belfort was one of those people. I have no doubt that Bisping fought clean his whole career which makes his story even more incredible. Seeing him KO Rockhold was a thing of beauty. Definitely a well deserved Hall Of Famer.
Khabib got inducted yesterday 29-0…….yet Gegard Mousasi is 49-7 & 36 years old. Pisses me off. Bisping most definitely deserves HOF statues I agree. Earned it.
@@JustShotsForMehabsolute understatement mate. 110% disposal of duty of care by the ufc, maybe why they have given Bisping his commentary role…not that he doesn’t deserve it as he’s a great analyst.
@@DLIN666 TRT was legal back then, Belfort was super human for example, he had 4 times the amount of testosterone an average 30 year old male has, it's not why Bisping got the commentary job, he's just good and passionate about it like DC and Felder
@@JustShotsForMeh read my previous reply properly mate. You point out that he was juiced up but then say he was superhuman…he was given trt exemption because of his steroid use. I pointed out how the ufc allowed shit like that and how by doing so they completely neglected their duty of care towards fighters and put the clean ones in danger of severe consequences…for example Bisping’s eye. As I already said, he is a great analyst but there are many fighters who could give their perspective but they aren’t working for the ufc - my point being that it MAY be some way for the ufc to try to ensure Financial security for Bisping as he had to stop fighting. Does that provide more clarity for you?
I have heard Bisping tell these stories quite a few times now and i still can't believe it. You have to be a certain level of mad to carry on fighting in the state he was in. Amazing!
Dealing with a bummed knee and hand... amateur MMA. Honestly been considering quitting. Thanks man, this was inspirational. To people dealing with something, hang in there guys. We'll get through it!

After losing the sight in my left eye after an accident I feel every word Michael is saying, depth perception sucks to start with, but u just learn to live with everything. What a great bloke
Makes me understand now why bisping has such a problem with doping. Trt Belfort was over the hill until he got on the sauce, bisping probably would have scorched him if not for the roids and instead he lost an eye because of it. Really puts it into perspective
Didn't Vitor's toenail or something slice his eye? I know it was a kick, but I thought his nail got him..... If so, they gotta make a rule about that. Like tape the toes, or the doctors clip their nails before the fight.
@@Danielson1818 i don't know if that's what happened but i know when i used to compete the refs would check our nails to see if they were too long. If we held out our hands, palms out, and the ref could see our nails over the tip of the finger, it was a no go. I remember cutting my nails with a pair of scissors so i wouldn't Gey dq'd
Yip me too.i remember reading about him in the mid to late 90s in Loaded magazine saying what a prospect he was n then I watched him win cage warriors belt.so happy for him to achieve his dreams.

Most fighters UFC or not, would have quit after losing an eye. One VERY difficult decision, that changed the entire tcome of not only his career but his and his family's life. A legend among the legends.
Well like you said he didn't have much of a choice at that time all he could do was fight for income he had a wife and kids just bought a new house if he were to quit and do some other job that couldn't pay for everything would the wife stay by his side maybe maybe not... I'm sure he was far from being homeless or starving but still once you accumulate that many material things you really don't want to give it up.
There are very few people in the history of the UFC who we can genuinely say and agree were the absolute definition of warriors. Bisping in every single aspect is one of them. There are/were people who have warrior like performances (Ortega vs Max), even warrior type periods in their career, but eventually most people fade out and become more concerned with their health and how they perceive fighting, - which most people can understand 100% - we saw this with Nick Diaz for example. But Bisping without a shadow of any doubt, was a warrior from the beginning to the absolute very end.
K i agree with what your saying but your examples are not too good. You named a beatdown fight, and which i guess the warrior in ortega for having that chin. And nick diaz who was out for 6 or 7 years not training and before his last fight he never fought for 3 years. No need to throw nick under the bus. You couldve said Diego Sanchez, Dan Henderson, shogun, wanderlei, matt brown, just to name a few if you talking about guys who lost their chin but once had the best. But to whos a warrior, there is alooooot. Man theres so many. Ortega and holloway fight was one sided. Thats not quite being a warrior if you not getting off any offense lol just heart and good chin, a warrior battles back.
Listening to Bisping and how he is so so dedicated to the sport and what has unfortunately happened to him makes you like the guy, even more, such an incredible athlete.
I was in second grade when I lost my right eye to a pencil thrown across the room. It was my dominant eye, and it took a while before I was able to do things like pick up a glass without misjudging and knocking it over, or walking through a doorway without bumping my shoulder. Longer still before I could catch a baseball or accurately throw one. I say a "long time", but a 7 year old adapts pretty quickly, and by the time I was 9 or 10 the only things I had trouble with were those that didn't have anything for reference to size right next to it, giving me an idea of how close it was (such as catching a baseball in mid air), but I was even getting better at that. As I got older, my left eye compensated, and I enjoyed 20/10 vision in it until only very recently as with age things tend to deteriorate. Now I use reading glasses and soon may need corrective lenses to drive. My eye gets tired much sooner than it ever did in the past. I've had a slight case of glaucoma for the last several years, and last year my eye doctor told me I was developing a cataract, but stressed that it was normal at my age, correctable since we caught it early, and nothing to worry about. Having only one eye for most of my life didn't slow me down or hold me back from anything except joining the military (which was ironic because I lost the eye in a school on a military base because my father was in the Air Force), getting a commercial driver's license, and getting a pilot's license. Disqualified from all three of these because of a lack of peripheral vision on my right side and a lack of depth perception. All things said and done, I think having lost the eye so early in life was good for me. At an early age it became second nature for me to pay a little more attention to virtually everything I did so as not to be clumsy or awkward and to try to be a little more precise in everything I do physically to prevent spills or mishaps. Consequently, by the time I was in my teens, it was often remarked on how fast I could learn and become accomplished at any new skills or activities that involved my hand/eye coordination. Where everyone else took weeks or even months to become proficient at many new activities, I took days, and as time progressed, I got better at it faster than they did. Shooting, for instance. I grew up hunting and fishing. I have been shooting and have been around shooters my entire life. Beginning with a BB gun at 6 years old, then a .22 rifle at 8 years old, I have owned and shot guns since I was tall enough to keep both ends of a rifle off the ground at the same time. I had to learn to shoot a long gun (shotgun or rifle) left handed so I could use the sights or scope with my left eye, but that was no big deal. To this day I only know of one person that ever outshot me with either a rifle or handgun. I'm also a fairly decent pool player, having won my share of tournaments. Maybe it's because I grew up not remembering what it's like to have depth perception, but I just don't feel that having only one eye is that much of a hardship. I guess it comes down to not knowing what you have until you lose it or, in my case, not knowing what your were missing when you never had it in the first place. Once in a while, I say that I know why the 3 legged dog still runs and plays. All that being said, I still wouldn't want to fight Mr. Bisping even if he were tied up and I had a baseball bat and a 24 hour head start.
@@marchfifth1754 Don't feel bad for me. I think, in the long run, it made me a better person. As I said, it made me take a little more care with anything I did with my hands, and that carried over into taking extra care with everything I did. I had a wonderful career as a Park Ranger and am now retired, so it all worked out well for me. I'm just thankful it happened when I was so young and didn't have to adjust to losing my depth perception as an adult.
Bisping is the kind of person/athlete they make movies out of. Dude's an ironman with balls of steel. And with all his injuries and ailments and ALL the odds stacked against him, he still kept his body healthy and won the championship with one fkn eye! Dude is an inspiration.

This just shows that fighters like Michael Bisping are a different breed than most of us. We'd use a bad eye as an excuse not to fight, and he's trying to get around it so he can.
Iv only got one eye n every time I bang into something or miss picking up cutlery or something n get embarrassed I just think get yourself together Bisping won a world title with one eye so stop feeling sorry for yourself,he's an inspiration to all us cyclops 🤣
i hear what your saying and in alot of ways agree (fighters are different breeds, fighters like bisping are even more...) but there is also the element of pretty universal human stubborn-ness, particularly in regards of being kept from doing what we love. basically another form of 'save the player from themselves'. again, not trying to be pedantic or argumentative, just an observation to your point. but ya, bisping's an (amusing) beast.
I bet if they work and become available Joe will pay to get him one, he's that type of person and he would do it just to talk about his friend with the robot eye and how good it works lol
If they get to the point where you can replace your "optics" (i.e. eyes) like in Cyberpunk and get superior vision I would totally do it. Hell, even if it just matched your natural eyes I would do it since I suffered a medical accident awhile back that rendered my retinas super sensitive to any bright lights. It's been very annoying ever since, and there's no way for them to naturally recover. It'd have to be some miracle stem cell regenerative treatment, or some type of bionic replacement.
This man is a living legend and deserves to be financially set for the rest of his life.... His 2 artificial knees and blind eye is exactly why UFC fighters deserve to get paid better as there are many guys with life altering injuries from doing MMA.
If people stopped illegally streaming they probably would get paid more. I always love the moral outrage from fans when 99% of them illegally stream the fights, it’s funny.
@@jimsim8736 LOL look at how many movies, TV shows and other sports that are streamed illegally every single day..... Tons of people in those industries still make 10s of Millions a year lol Its a factor but not what you make it out to be AT ALL.
@@Lockdown335 That’s because more people pay to watch those sports, DUH!!! Are you seriously comparing football, American football, Basketball etc all of whom have MUCH bigger audiences to the UFC? They sell shirts, and kits,and merchandise etc, Get a grip.
Bisping is a fucking beast man. I don't care what anyone says. He was a showman and that probably rubbed people the wrong way. But he never cheated you on effort or a show. You were always entertained when Bisping's number was called. Not many guy's have his heart.
It's very nice reading these comments and seeing this man get the credit he deserves! Well done Mike and well done MMA community for finally recognizing his heart and accomplishments!
Trying to fight with one eye on any level is difficult. The courage it would take to do so on a proffesional level against the best in the world is incredible.
Absolutely,iv only got one eye,still struggle day to day so to think bisping won a world title against the best n did it without steroids is just insane.Im happy to see him successful & healthy in retirement.

Not only did Bisping win the belt with one eye, he's had 11 fights since the detached retina. Just imagine if he got another one in the other eye, now he's blind. That's fucking insane. He's gotta be the toughest fighter ever to be in the UFC. And beat Anderson Silva with one eye. This man is GOATed.
Always liked Michel Bisping, but after the "old lady story" I gotta say I love this dude! Mad respect from one fighter to another. Overcame a disability most could never achieve at such a pro level. And he is a purely down to earth regular good guy.
i've had an eye injury, had to wear a patch for a few weeks. it was already rough, especially the loss of depth perception and your peripheral vision (eg walking in crowded streets, riding motorbike). can't ever imagine how it is having to fight with one good eye, bisping really sacrificed a LOT and put his whole body on the line.
The only kind of lying and cheating that's seen as admirable in context.
It’s lying but it’s not cheating since it doesn’t result in an advantage

I’m in the same boat as you, about 5-10% in my bad eye and my “good eye” isn’t exactly good either 😂, insane to think about Bisping being able to fight and win a title with one eye
Well from what I have seen so far those who had poor eyesight since thier childhood has better eyesight compared to those who recently started having poor eyesight although they requires same amount of lens. I need -4.5 to -5 power lens but I can play football so called soccer in USA without any lens or anything but my friends who needs around -3 to -4 power lens can't play football without lens or glasses, etc. So yeah your body made an adjustments. And these stories of our bodies making adjustments are completely true or can be demmed true to some point
My 4 month old child went through the same thing (genetics not roided Vitor) and this video and your story helped my wife a lot and I know your story will be a constant reminder to him growing up on not letting his conformer or condition be an issue.
Nah that's vitor his powers cannot be explained with modern medicine he can rewrite DNA from across the room
wishing you and your family good luck ian! stay strong!
First line of your comment made me laugh. "Genetics, not roided Vitor" 🤣
This man has grown on everyone, I have so much respect for how well he educated a lot of casual fans about MMA. Including me.
Hated him as a fighter, but he's very entertaining to listen to and shares good stories and insight.
I didn't like him til recent
Always been a fan of the Count,just a warrior n he's a very entertaining commentator now,good on him.
I keep seeing this term, 'casual fan.' What exactly is a "casual fan??"
@Pinocchio THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!
Love him or hate him, Michael Bisping has been an absolute gift to the sport. He was a great fighter and has a PhD in shit talking, which made for many hilarious moments over the years.
"Are you intaksikatid" best mimicry ever
Telling Victor "jesus isn't real" in a staredown was hilarious
@@andrewhamilton5775 it was actually in the middle of the fight and he got KO'd immediately after XD
All the people that used to hate him love him now. Including myself.
New ufc fan here: people hate Bisping?
Him carrying on, knowing he could go blind and get seriously hurt is a testament to how much of a warrior this guy is. He deserved to be a champ at that point. Many great things that’s happened in the UFC but this is probably the greatest story that’s ever happened in UFC history. I always wanted him to be champ as an Englishmen and so glad he achieved it against all odds too. Makes us even more proud of him that he did it after all he’s been through. Watching him win and KO Rockhold at 5am in the morning here in England was the best moment ever watching MMA. Everyone in the house was woken up too. They were pissed, it was tremendous. Love you Mike ✌🏻

I think it's real stupid
Winning the championship with one eye - Story alone needs a movie to be made.
Bisping is a warrior.
Its a fucking joke that Bisping isnt bigger in the UK.
The man is the first English Champ, and he did it one short notice with one fucking eye.
absolute fucking legend.
@MMT bisping is legit probably the toughest man to ever come out of the uk
@MMT picturing him getting in a bar fight with Tyson fury
It's because the UK media doesn't like any contact sports, let alone MMA: not sufficiently middle class for them.
@@duncanwilson2926 They love AJ though.
@@duncanwilson2926 the UK media covers boxing none stop? MMA only became mainstream in the UK after Bisping retired. People talking nonsense.
Guys cheat to go in with an advantage...Mike cheated to go in with THE BIGGEST disadvantage EVER.
Crazy
@@20timesmanunited20 its already crazy without the fact that he WON THE BELT. If you wrote the movie, it would be toooo much.
@@TheRealDarrylStrawberry What a legend
Won the title with one eye and two bad knees that had to be replaced as soon as he retired. Just think if he still had decent legs and both eyes.
@@celticbarry9877 he would still be fighting lol
I always loved Bisping. I remember when he was on the Ultimate Fighter and won a bout against Ross Pointon (I think it was Ross). Ross was taking the loss really hard and Bisping comforted him and encouraged him. He didn’t have to do that but he did anyway. I admired that about him.
Me personally I admired most when he spat on Jorge Rivera
I was 20yr old in NJ Newark airport at my gate waiting for my plane to Manchester England and he turns up, just him and his lady. A quick hello and congratulations on winning UF before getting on the plane. Never forget how humble and happy he was.
Truly a British Legend, Bisping makes me proud to be a Brit. 🇬🇧 An absolute warrior but a kind and humble person also!
🇬🇧👊👏
You aren't cut from the same cloth as these men. Stop trying to make it look like England is full of Bispings.
@@Inaluogh bet ur fun 😂
@@Inaluogh He's from Up North, much poorer region so tougher people on average
who's trying to do that lol You're off your head even saying that. It's weird. Somebody is being proud of somebody doing a great job, having merit in a sport, from their country. It's inspiring, nothing wrong with that at all. Only some of the extremer end of the Yanks says this sort of thing, because of how they're educated. In their mind The Yank is allowed , USA USA USA proud proud, but not the English man, Look when Mike Tyson on hotboxing, repeatedly mentions something positive about the English in terms of a warrior tradition, and the American guy he's says it to , never knows how to respond, + looks really fucking uncomfortable like he's learned something different from what he got taught in history at school lol Is it like a Yank brainwash? Cognitive dissonance, Yeah anyway we get it, fine, but no one ever slaps these fuckers in the face, by pointing out common sense to them, the basic concept, from George Washington. to General Patton, the two greatest martial heroes in US history ,their veins were full of fucking English blood, These are English cowards that they look up too in their US martial tradition. Like it or not, their genetics were not from the other 195 countries on the earth! Hard I'm sure for a humble Yank to get his head round I can imagine. If I was a Yank I'd probably struggle with it too ,I feel for you Gentlemen sometimes honestly not an easy circle to square.Well.. Bispings full of Polish right lol yet ironically he considers himself English through and through lol Life's funny like that isn't it sometimes @@Inaluogh
My goodness. The UFC should take care of this guy for life for real. Incredible. Much respect to Bisping for the way he has handled it and who he is as a person now.

Seems like they are doing right by him. He has a sweet announcing gig and his podcast and UA-cam.
@@Theirishcannoli his title reign finally makes sense to me. if I was blind in one eye, no way I'd fight prime Yoel Romero or Jacare Souza.
Sadly this isn't always the case, there's fighters that have been left with major CTE dimentia and have been left to get on with it after no longer being able to fight. Fisher being just 1 example. It's pretty sad really and the UFC could do so much better by their fighters.
He did cheat the eye tests though he wasn't fit to fight but he took it on himself
One of my favorite sportsperson for his attitude, jokes, fighting ability.. and he was a Champion too!!
Hope he stays the same and remains an inspiration!!
With one eye and never on steroids this man became ufc champion. Absolute legend
Joe is at his best when doing mma podcasts
Agreed
Martial arts is by far what he's most passionate about.
He’s too political now but these are top tier
@Billy Jackson he doesn’t provide the full picture. One podcast won’t provide the full picture especially when it’s not even a legit educational platform. Do your own research. Go to school, actually educate yourself from multiple media’s. Don’t take ALL your info from one podcast on Spotify. Joe admitted it himself that he wasn’t actively showing both sides to things like covid-19. I miss the old Rogan where I could use his podcast to distract from the struggles of life, hear him rant about ufc, chimpanzees and don’t. Now it’s basically like I’m watching the 5 o clock news with all his covid “experts”
@Billy Jackson yeah I agree with that you on that, my bad I thought you meant it a different way. Have a good one bro
I used to not like Michael Bisping years ago, but over time he became one of my most admired athletes in the UFC. His toughness and no excuses attitude won the Belt simultaneously redeeming his defeat against Rockhold and Achieving Championship🏆 belt with 1 eye 👁️. Amazing. That makes it even more remarkable!!! Bravo 👏. I'm sure the UK, his family and friends are very proud
We are very proud of him here in the UK. 👊
Iv only got one eye n I can't begin to tell you the respect I have for Bisping winning the UFC belt one eyed.Its incredible,I still struggle with day to day things never mind winning a world championship belt.Mad respect.
Agreed 👍
I hated him....when he was on tuf...and coached tuf...then liked him when he ko like...then hated him when he beat hendo in his last fight....hendo being my fav fighter of all time....now like him again once I found out he only had 1 eye years ago
@Adam Chapman he was never a heel. It's his British humour and banter a lot of Americans seemed to have a problem with
I look up to bisping so much, i currently have retinopathy and had to leave martial arts to the wayside, but knowing this man fought with one eye made me believe its possible to live your life and manage with it and still be fulfilled with your life. Legend of a man
I love Bisping commentary, he is always so genuine and has real good, engaging delivery. I love to hear his histories, not to mention the heart to go fight with some of the toughest men on the planet just with one eye. What a legend. Being champion is the just such a good payout for his persistence.
dude literately did all he can for his family to be in a better position in life. GOAT
Let’s not forget that there were many fighters with a TRT exemption back when Bisping fought Belfort…and Belfort was one of those people. I have no doubt that Bisping fought clean his whole career which makes his story even more incredible. Seeing him KO Rockhold was a thing of beauty. Definitely a well deserved Hall Of Famer.
Khabib got inducted yesterday 29-0…….yet Gegard Mousasi is 49-7 & 36 years old.
Pisses me off.
Bisping most definitely deserves HOF statues I agree. Earned it.
Belfort was juiced out of his gizzer
@@JustShotsForMehabsolute understatement mate. 110% disposal of duty of care by the ufc, maybe why they have given Bisping his commentary role…not that he doesn’t deserve it as he’s a great analyst.
@@DLIN666 TRT was legal back then, Belfort was super human for example, he had 4 times the amount of testosterone an average 30 year old male has, it's not why Bisping got the commentary job, he's just good and passionate about it like DC and Felder
@@JustShotsForMeh read my previous reply properly mate. You point out that he was juiced up but then say he was superhuman…he was given trt exemption because of his steroid use.
I pointed out how the ufc allowed shit like that and how by doing so they completely neglected their duty of care towards fighters and put the clean ones in danger of severe consequences…for example Bisping’s eye. As I already said, he is a great analyst but there are many fighters who could give their perspective but they aren’t working for the ufc - my point being that it MAY be some way for the ufc to try to ensure Financial security for Bisping as he had to stop fighting. Does that provide more clarity for you?
I have heard Bisping tell these stories quite a few times now and i still can't believe it. You have to be a certain level of mad to carry on fighting in the state he was in. Amazing!
Dealing with a bummed knee and hand... amateur MMA. Honestly been considering quitting. Thanks man, this was inspirational. To people dealing with something, hang in there guys. We'll get through it!
You quit didn’t you?

- Michael Bisbing, taking the piss out of Luke Rockhold while talking about Count Dante's bullshido
Dude is an absolute legend, total warrior & super inspirational. really grateful I got to see him fight live in the UFC!
After losing the sight in my left eye after an accident I feel every word Michael is saying, depth perception sucks to start with, but u just learn to live with everything. What a great bloke
Makes me understand now why bisping has such a problem with doping. Trt Belfort was over the hill until he got on the sauce, bisping probably would have scorched him if not for the roids and instead he lost an eye because of it.
Really puts it into perspective
So true!!!
Bingo
Didn't Vitor's toenail or something slice his eye? I know it was a kick, but I thought his nail got him..... If so, they gotta make a rule about that. Like tape the toes, or the doctors clip their nails before the fight.
Not just Vitor. Look at Bispings losses during the TRT era. Wanderlei, Chael and Hendo, all on it. I'd guess Tim Kennedy was too.
@@Danielson1818 i don't know if that's what happened but i know when i used to compete the refs would check our nails to see if they were too long. If we held out our hands, palms out, and the ref could see our nails over the tip of the finger, it was a no go. I remember cutting my nails with a pair of scissors so i wouldn't Gey dq'd
One of the few whos always loved Bisping even when he was UFCs heel. A legit pillar of the sport.
Yip me too.i remember reading about him in the mid to late 90s in Loaded magazine saying what a prospect he was n then I watched him win cage warriors belt.so happy for him to achieve his dreams.
who could like bisping before the hendo fight? That ko was the most satisfying in ufc history

Absolutely incredible, fought 11 UFC fights after the Belfort fight with one eye 🔥🤯
So much respect and props for Bisping!
This man is an amazing storyteller. And an absolute legend imo
Most fighters UFC or not, would have quit after losing an eye. One VERY difficult decision, that changed the entire tcome of not only his career but his and his family's life.
A legend among the legends.
sounds like for him it was an east decision lol

Well like you said he didn't have much of a choice at that time all he could do was fight for income he had a wife and kids just bought a new house if he were to quit and do some other job that couldn't pay for everything would the wife stay by his side maybe maybe not... I'm sure he was far from being homeless or starving but still once you accumulate that many material things you really don't want to give it up.
Not just most fighters, most athletes, I can't think of a footballer or a basketball player who would do that.
@@graciegjj hilarious
There are very few people in the history of the UFC who we can genuinely say and agree were the absolute definition of warriors. Bisping in every single aspect is one of them. There are/were people who have warrior like performances (Ortega vs Max), even warrior type periods in their career, but eventually most people fade out and become more concerned with their health and how they perceive fighting, - which most people can understand 100% - we saw this with Nick Diaz for example. But Bisping without a shadow of any doubt, was a warrior from the beginning to the absolute very end.
Who else would you put in that category?
Randy Couture? Fighting deep into his 40's, wanting to test himself against the very best.
Andre Arlovski. Still in there going at it.
K i agree with what your saying but your examples are not too good. You named a beatdown fight, and which i guess the warrior in ortega for having that chin. And nick diaz who was out for 6 or 7 years not training and before his last fight he never fought for 3 years. No need to throw nick under the bus. You couldve said Diego Sanchez, Dan Henderson, shogun, wanderlei, matt brown, just to name a few if you talking about guys who lost their chin but once had the best. But to whos a warrior, there is alooooot. Man theres so many. Ortega and holloway fight was one sided. Thats not quite being a warrior if you not getting off any offense lol just heart and good chin, a warrior battles back.
@@jamessimpson710 Robert Whittaker, Covington, Nurmagomedov
Listening to Bisping and how he is so so dedicated to the sport and what has unfortunately happened to him makes you like the guy, even more, such an incredible athlete.
I was in second grade when I lost my right eye to a pencil thrown across the room. It was my dominant eye, and it took a while before I was able to do things like pick up a glass without misjudging and knocking it over, or walking through a doorway without bumping my shoulder. Longer still before I could catch a baseball or accurately throw one. I say a "long time", but a 7 year old adapts pretty quickly, and by the time I was 9 or 10 the only things I had trouble with were those that didn't have anything for reference to size right next to it, giving me an idea of how close it was (such as catching a baseball in mid air), but I was even getting better at that. As I got older, my left eye compensated, and I enjoyed 20/10 vision in it until only very recently as with age things tend to deteriorate. Now I use reading glasses and soon may need corrective lenses to drive. My eye gets tired much sooner than it ever did in the past. I've had a slight case of glaucoma for the last several years, and last year my eye doctor told me I was developing a cataract, but stressed that it was normal at my age, correctable since we caught it early, and nothing to worry about.
Having only one eye for most of my life didn't slow me down or hold me back from anything except joining the military (which was ironic because I lost the eye in a school on a military base because my father was in the Air Force), getting a commercial driver's license, and getting a pilot's license. Disqualified from all three of these because of a lack of peripheral vision on my right side and a lack of depth perception. All things said and done, I think having lost the eye so early in life was good for me. At an early age it became second nature for me to pay a little more attention to virtually everything I did so as not to be clumsy or awkward and to try to be a little more precise in everything I do physically to prevent spills or mishaps. Consequently, by the time I was in my teens, it was often remarked on how fast I could learn and become accomplished at any new skills or activities that involved my hand/eye coordination. Where everyone else took weeks or even months to become proficient at many new activities, I took days, and as time progressed, I got better at it faster than they did.
Shooting, for instance. I grew up hunting and fishing. I have been shooting and have been around shooters my entire life. Beginning with a BB gun at 6 years old, then a .22 rifle at 8 years old, I have owned and shot guns since I was tall enough to keep both ends of a rifle off the ground at the same time. I had to learn to shoot a long gun (shotgun or rifle) left handed so I could use the sights or scope with my left eye, but that was no big deal. To this day I only know of one person that ever outshot me with either a rifle or handgun. I'm also a fairly decent pool player, having won my share of tournaments.
Maybe it's because I grew up not remembering what it's like to have depth perception, but I just don't feel that having only one eye is that much of a hardship. I guess it comes down to not knowing what you have until you lose it or, in my case, not knowing what your were missing when you never had it in the first place. Once in a while, I say that I know why the 3 legged dog still runs and plays.
All that being said, I still wouldn't want to fight Mr. Bisping even if he were tied up and I had a baseball bat and a 24 hour head start.
Fuck what a horrible thing to happen at a young age all over something so stupid. i feel really bad for you.
Wow, thanks for sharing.
@@marchfifth1754 Don't feel bad for me. I think, in the long run, it made me a better person. As I said, it made me take a little more care with anything I did with my hands, and that carried over into taking extra care with everything I did. I had a wonderful career as a Park Ranger and am now retired, so it all worked out well for me. I'm just thankful it happened when I was so young and didn't have to adjust to losing my depth perception as an adult.
@@bearbarre6435 Did you end up getting a prosthetic?
@@bearbarre6435 Love your attitude on the whole thing, God bless
Bisping is the kind of person/athlete they make movies out of. Dude's an ironman with balls of steel. And with all his injuries and ailments and ALL the odds stacked against him, he still kept his body healthy and won the championship with one fkn eye! Dude is an inspiration.

This just shows that fighters like Michael Bisping are a different breed than most of us. We'd use a bad eye as an excuse not to fight, and he's trying to get around it so he can.
Well, as he said, he didn't really have a choice. He needed to keep fighting to pay his bills.
Iv only got one eye n every time I bang into something or miss picking up cutlery or something n get embarrassed I just think get yourself together Bisping won a world title with one eye so stop feeling sorry for yourself,he's an inspiration to all us cyclops 🤣
Bro I’ll use any excuse not to fight, not anywhere near the level of a bum eye
i hear what your saying and in alot of ways agree (fighters are different breeds, fighters like bisping are even more...) but there is also the element of pretty universal human stubborn-ness, particularly in regards of being kept from doing what we love. basically another form of 'save the player from themselves'.
again, not trying to be pedantic or argumentative, just an observation to your point. but ya, bisping's an (amusing) beast.
If I saw this in a movie it’d definitely make me say “only in movies” absolutely incredible story and one of my favorite fighters
One of the most beautiful conversations I have ever listened in to.

Joe trying to get Bisping to get a bionic eye🤣
I bet if they work and become available Joe will pay to get him one, he's that type of person and he would do it just to talk about his friend with the robot eye and how good it works lol
If they get to the point where you can replace your "optics" (i.e. eyes) like in Cyberpunk and get superior vision I would totally do it. Hell, even if it just matched your natural eyes I would do it since I suffered a medical accident awhile back that rendered my retinas super sensitive to any bright lights. It's been very annoying ever since, and there's no way for them to naturally recover. It'd have to be some miracle stem cell regenerative treatment, or some type of bionic replacement.
Heard this life story so many times now never gets old or boring what a true legend in his own making . Had no choice but too keep fighting 😎👊

From disliked to loved, Bisping has been on a journey. Nothing but respect for this guy. His podcast is also quality
I love when Bisping comes on. Such a good guest and I’ve been following him since TUF 3
It's very nice reading these comments and seeing this man get the credit he deserves! Well done Mike and well done MMA community for finally recognizing his heart and accomplishments!
Trying to fight with one eye on any level is difficult. The courage it would take to do so on a proffesional level against the best in the world is incredible.
You have to be obsessed with the sport to win let alone be a champion.

@Pinocchio seriously. Give it a break.
I'm really glad Bisping has found such success post fight career. The man went through incredible adversity, while still working for his family.
Bisping..is a Beast..I love him been watching him scrap for years. Fighting with 1 eye binding has heart
Not only an absolute outstanding fighter. One of the real best of ufc. A genuine good positive man/father. Great inspiration great attitude.
Whenever I have a difficult task at hand at work, I watch the Rockhold 2 fight to pump myself up. Legendary fight.
Honestly really fucking sad how he lost an eye due to that drug cheat. Dudes a God damn legend in MMA and will forever be my favorite fighter period.
TRT or not you step into the ring to fight someone anything can happen welcome to combat sports.
Best 9 minutes i ever watched wow he is a true worrior and you can tell they both genuinely like eachother
This man is a legend through and through. And he tells the funniest stories, definitely has the gift of the garb.
Real Hall of Famer. Earned his place in mma folklore.
I think just fighter folklore. I am mainly a boxing fan but Bisping is a definite inspiration to anyone who fights
Bisping is just a man you love, the one friend thats never boring

What a fking boss, that's hardcore bisping.
Not only did Bisping win the belt with one eye, he's had 11 fights since the detached retina. Just imagine if he got another one in the other eye, now he's blind. That's fucking insane. He's gotta be the toughest fighter ever to be in the UFC. And beat Anderson Silva with one eye. This man is GOATed.
Respect..WHAT A LEGEND ! GIVES HOPE TO ALOT OF PEOPLE !
Bisping literally gave his eye to MMA, crazy stuff!
Always liked Michel Bisping, but after the "old lady story" I gotta say I love this dude! Mad respect from one fighter to another. Overcame a disability most could never achieve at such a pro level. And he is a purely down to earth regular good guy.
Wtf u like him more cos he accidentally hits old ladies? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@vp922 no I love him for his pure honesty and how he doesn't allow his disability to slow him down. But your way of thinking is even funnier!
Joe: how do you fight with 1 eye?
Michael: pretend you have 2
Always great listening to Bisping, he comes across really well any time I listen to him.
I think not letting Bisping fight with one eye shows a lack of perspective.
Damn still at it Jo?
Take this like...you gave me a good chuckle. Good trade!
I see what you did there 😀
Would love it if Bisping was on JRE more often
No bs excuses to be better at anything. Truly inspiring n soo motivating.
Bisping is a champ.
Absolutely love Bisping, the true meaning of warrior . Dude is an inspiration .
Love this podcast, have a fantastic weekend everyone

Rest In Peace to DC’s mother.🌹
sight is easily one of the most priceless body parts. You can get a new heart, you can't get a new eye
Michael Bisping the legend!! His Middleweight championship win is one of my all time favorite moments 👏👏👏👏
Good to hear he's doing well now, always seems like a nice guy and was a very talented fighter.
Bisping = Legend
"I lied to so many doctors, and guessed on multiple eye tests to fight one of the MMA goats to defend my title."
What a champ.
One of? THE mma goat surely
i've had an eye injury, had to wear a patch for a few weeks. it was already rough, especially the loss of depth perception and your peripheral vision (eg walking in crowded streets, riding motorbike). can't ever imagine how it is having to fight with one good eye, bisping really sacrificed a LOT and put his whole body on the line.
I can’t wait for his documentary! Gonna be awesome
What a great spirit he has.
Bisping is the real life Mortal Kombat Kano!!! A legend!!
